Luisa shot the photograph of Jersiane Berkembrock in the northwest corner of Brazil for a FERN story on agroforestry. Farmers in the RECA coop are working against the tide of Amazon deforestation with tree farms that produce a variety of edible goods and ingredients. Jersiane grew up as the daughter of RECA founders and became a member of the group at age 18. “Being involved in nature is a huge satisfaction,” she says.
Products of the Amazon (clockwise from top left): cupuaçu fruit, which is processed into oil and then sold to cosmetics companies for face creams and shower gels; Brazil nuts, harvested by RECA farmers and sold locally; rambutan fruit, which is related to lychee and widely grown in the region; açaí, which is common in the Amazon region and is used in food and drinks.
Nathaniel Wilder photographed a story on the Bristol Bay salmon harvest. In this image, a fishing crew loads sockeye salmon onto a truck just after dawn at Coffee Point. The first catch of the day brought in 1,500 pounds of salmon.
Bill Hatcher shot a FERN story about Zuni agriculture in the Southwest, where American Indian farmers are working to restore native foods. This picture shows an early winter rain storm over Zuni Pueblo in New Mexico.
